1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Purpose: To describe the presence of bacillary layer detachment (BALAD) in serpiginous-like choroiditis (SLC) in presumed intraocular tuberculosis. Observations: Clinical and multimodal imaging including fundus photography, fundus autofluorescence, and spectral domain and enhanced-deep imaging optical coherence tomography (OCT) of two cases of SLC in presumed intraocular tuberculosis. Two patients (26 and 38-year-old woman) presented with unilateral, decreased vision of acute onset. They were diagnosed with SLC in presumed intraocular tuberculosis, and OCT revealed splitting of the ellipsoid zone, resembling BALAD. All two patients showed complete resolution after treatment with antitubercular therapy (ATT). Conclusions and Importance: BALAD appears in the acute stage of SLC in presumed intraocular tuberculosis and resolves rapidly at the beginning of ATT.
